Dallas Theater Center's World Premiere engagement of Moonshine: That Hee Haw Musical, a new musical comedy lovingly (and loosely) inspired by the classic TV series, began performances at Dallas Theater Center on September 2, 2015, and officially opens tomorrow, Friday, September 18, 2015. Performances run through October 11, 2015.

The musical features a score by multi-Award winning artists Brandy Clark (a 2015 Grammy Award nominee for Best New Artist) and Shane McAnally (a two-time Grammy Award-winner), two of today's most critically acclaimed country music singer/songwriters. Moonshine: That Hee Haw Musical also features a book by Robert Horn, direction by Gary Griffin and choreography by Denis Jones.

The World Premiere cast of Moonshine: That Hee Haw Musical features Justin Guarini as Gordy, Rose Hemingway as Misty Mae, Ken Clark as Bucky Jr., Ryah Nixon as Lulu, Kevin Cahoon as Jr. Jr. and PJ Benjamin as Grandpa, with an ensemble that includes Mackenzie Bell, John Campione, Travis Kirk Coombs, Julie Johnson, Katherine McMillian, Harris Milgrim, Rob Morrison, Adam Perry, Aaron Ramey, and Jonalyn Saxer.

The creative team of Moonshine: That Hee Haw Musical also includes Tony Award-winner John Lee Beatty (Set Design), Mara Blumenfeld (Costume Design), Philip Rosenberg(Lighting Design), Tony Award-winner John Shivers (Sound Design), Tara Rubin (Casting), with musical supervision, arrangements and orchestrations by Tony and Grammy Award-winner Stephen Oremus.

Hilarious and downright irreverent, Moonshine: That Hee Haw Musical distills the spirit of an iconic television series and bottles it into an original musical comedy. Set in present day Kornfield Kounty, this highly anticipated show introduces a new generation of irresistible characters as it tells the story of Misty Mae, the ultimate hometown girl, who heads out to follow her dreams in the big city of... Tampa. When she returns home to introduce her slick city-boy beau to her friends and family, everything goes haywire!
